What a find! Give that alert DH of yours an extra hug for the great find! Congrats on your new toy.

Yeah, just haven't decided on a name yet. Waiting for something to come to me. :lol:

Happy Birthday and lucky you. I came across one recently in an antiques place that wanted $375.00 for it. Pretty but not that pretty. She stayed there!!!

You never know what you will find in a thrift shop. Obviously, you made out like a bandit.

Years ago, a friend of mine was singing a concert. Her DH was headed towards a thrift store as she went in, She said, "Bud, don't buy anything unless you find a New York Martin (a very valuable antique guitar) for $5." When she came out, that was exactly what he had. The thrift store owner thought it wasn't worth much because it was stringless and looked kinda beat up. Thrift store may just have junk...or may have real treasures.

Happy Birthday to you! What a wonderful present for you!

Congratulations, she is a beauty - now you need to join the Featherweight group on Quilt Board.

Congratulations! Any reason you're not telling us how much you paid for her (other than it's none of our business). I want to know so that I won't lose heart that I can find one at a great price!
